OCI firm help
Hello hello,
1. Am I a moron for not applying anywhere pre-OCI?
2. If my goal is to jump ship to govt in a few years which firms would position me well?
3. What firms do I have a realistic shot at for litigation in NY/DC? Me: HYS, law review, approx 1/3 Hs (idk where that puts me in the class), few years of relevant work experience, not URM.

I assume this is not Yale, but if it is, you're basically competitive everywhere.

He said law review, not law journal, so it's probably H.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Tue Jun 18, 2024 10:33 pmI assume this is not Yale, but if it is, you're basically competitive everywhere.

Re: OCI firm help
Yes, not Yale. Which are the best firms where I’d be reasonably competitive then?

Re: OCI firm help
You're median-ish at H/S, you should be blanketing all the firms you'd be willing to work and and then you can decide which is "best". It's a pretty short list of firms where you wouldn't be competitive, and even those are worth a flyer IMO. Would also be looking hard at clerking.

Re: OCI firm help
I’d apply. Even being HYS you want to give yourself the best opportunity. OCI has essentially moved to pre-OCI.
My firm has already made offers to 20 applicants from one T6. So things are moving.
